My story

DOB: 11/29/2021 Breed: German Shepherd mix -Spayed female 43lbs-Microchipped & fully vaccinated-Negative for heartworm & tick-borne diseases, and on a monthly preventative*Adoption Fee $350*A little bit about me… Pleased to meet you, I’m Mileena! Fierce in name, tender at heart. In the Mortal Kombat realm, I’d be known for my power moves, but here in the real world, my strength is in love and loyalty. I’m a very sweet girl with a gentle soul, though I battle with a different kind of fight: anxiety. I don’t like being left alone. My heart yearns for human comfort and connection, and my ideal forever home will have someone by my side most of the time. I walk like a proper lady on a leash, but I’m still training to keep my excitement in check when I see my favorite people. I came here with my bestie Kitana, and while I love playing with her, what I crave most is the warmth and reassurance of humans. If you’re looking for a companion who will stick by you through every round of life’s battles, I’m ready to join your team!The highlights…-Sweet demeanor-Very anxious -I do not like being left alone-Great walking buddyKey points to know…-Patience is Non-negotiable: An anxious dog will need extra time to adjust . Progress may come in small steps, so consistency, calm reassurance, and celebrating little wins are important.-Alone time requires training: Anxious dogs often struggle with separation, so gradual desensitization, interactive toys, and sometimes professional guidance will be needed to help them cope.-Routine is Comforting: A predictable schedule for meals, walks, and downtime helps reduce anxiety and builds trust, making them feel more secure in their new home.
